House GOP scrambles for leader - Nation/Politics - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper
Today, Senate Republicans are expected to approve Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky to be the minority leader. Sen. Trent Lott of Mississippi, a former Senate Republican leader, and Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, are locked in a tight but very quiet race for the No. 2 slot.
How boring! McConnell isn't too bad but Lott vs. Alexander? Lott needs to get out of Washington and I still can't forget the pandering that Alexander did to the 'common folk' when running for President in the 1996 primary. Remember those goofy red and black plaid shirts? Republicans need some different options that's for sure.
